Re: cpyfrmimpf null dilemma ?

Tim, do you have the option of modifying the physical file? You can use

ALTER TABLE VERN/TESTXX
ALTER COLUMN C1 DROP NOT NULL
ALTER COLUMN C2 DROP NOT NULL

Just alter them all. You might want to see if any allow NULL now, so you can return it to its former glory.

Hey all,
Trying to copy a very attractive and massive file that I got from a UNIX box
to my AS400.
However this "very attractive" file has the dreaded "nulls" disease.
Them voids between the commas are killing this!

Meaning
,,data,,data,,0,1
,data,,data,2,,3

What shall I do to get this file to happily travel the "cpyfrmimpf" route to
my matching AS400 database file ??
Now the "cpyfrmimpf" is griping about the "nulls" ...any suggestions from
you smart individuals is greatly appreciated ???
